The clostridial mobilisable transposons

Abstract Mobilisable transposons are transposable genetic elements that also encode mobilisation functions but are not in themselves conjugative. They rely on coresident conjugative elements to facilitate their transfer to recipient cells. Clostridial mobilisable transposons include Tn4451 and Tn4452 from Clostridium perfringens, and Tn4453a and Tn4453b from Clostridium difficile, all of which are closely related, and Tn5398 from C. difficile. The Tn4451 group of elements encodes resistance to chloramphenicol and is unusual in that transposition is dependent upon a large resolvase protein rather than a more conventional transposase or integrase. This group of elements also encodes the mobilisation protein TnpZ that, by acting at the RSA or oriT site located on the transposon, and in the presence of a coresident conjugative element, promotes the movement of the nonreplicating circular intermediate and of plasmids on which the transposon resides. The erythromycin resistance element Tn5398 is unique in that it encodes no readily identifiable transposition or mobilisation proteins. However, the element is still capable of intraspecific transfer between C. difficile isolates, by an unknown mechanism. The detailed analysis of these mobilisable clostridial elements provides evidence that the evolution and dissemination of antibiotic resistance genes is a complex process that may involve the interaction of genetic elements with very different properties.

About National Digital Library of India (NDLI)
NDLI logo

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
